A: A warrant in a traffic case will cause an OJW hold on your license. You will simply need to resolve the outstanding ticket. If you retain a Colorado attorney, they can file a motion asking to vacate the warrant and schedule the case for appearance and resolve the ticket. The clearing of the warrant and payment of OJW fee will lift the hold on your license here which in turn will enable you to secure your license in Texas.
